CHOCOLATE MINT COOKIES

I did a search first to see if anyone had tried the gluten-free Goodie Girl, Mint Slims (chocolate-dipped mint cookies), and didn't see anything.  If you loved Girl Scout's, Thin Mint cookies - I highly recommend the Goodie Girl cookies as a gluten-free alternative (w/ a glass of milk of course).  Found them at Wal-Mart in the gluten-free section.  I did contact the company today to see if they are made in a dedicated facility; will leave a response when I have an answer.  FAST RESPONSE:  We are not a totally gluten-free facility, but we are certified and very serious about keeping our line gluten free.  We have never had an issue and our products test below 5%. 

I also like Pillsbury gluten-free flour for under $3.00/lb. sold in 2 lb. bags.  And thanks to Celiac.com have discovered Progresso gluten-free soup, as well as Nature Valley gluten-free bars (both w/ several choices).  And good news for the holidays, through "price matching" at Wal-Mart; purchased a gluten-free Butterball turkey for Thanksgiving at 99 cents/pound.

I found those cookies a week ago and am happy to report that my husband and I demolished a boxful over a week's time and I felt great.....NO PROBLEMS!  They are a little sweet but I am not used to eating boxed cookies.  They are delicious and taste like the Girl Scout ones. We have our Thin Mints back, people.........:D

Update on Pillsbury gluten-free flour.  It seems every time I use it, a typical Celiac reaction ensues.  I like the price, but for some reason I personally can't tolerate it.  Others may react to it differently.

      Typical Diagnosis Route

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For the celiac disease blood tests it needs to be 6-8 weeks eating lots of gluten daily, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy. Keep in mind that a diagnosis can also bring higher life insurance and private health insurance costs, so an official diagnosis can have some negative sides too. Another example is that many jobs now ask if you have a "disability" and celiac disease is included on their list of disabilities. Just some things to weigh out before proceeding.😉

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Everyone with celiac disease needs to make their own lifestyle choices--in my case I continue to eat out at restaurants and travel--while some people with celiac disease try to avoid doing either. Of course the safest way to go would be to do neither--but I cannot not accept such lifestyle changes. Since I've made my choice I try to make my dining out as safe as possible, and from what I've learned AN-PEP enzymes may mitigate low amounts of contamination. This isn't a perfect solution, but there are many people out there like me who make even worse choices (our last poll showed that over 20% of celiacs regularly cheat on their diets!).

      He said it helped him which is why I was curious if you took it. I agree not for the challenge.

      Typical Diagnosis Route

      By AdelaW · Posted

      Thank you so much for your reply! Yes, I am definitely struggling with my GI and support, I wish that I had been warned to not change my habits after the biopsy and posting of results as I then would have continued to eat gluten and would have no need for a trial. But I unfortunately need an official diagnosis as I cannot get accommodations in college without one, so I am thinking to do the gluten trial! Do you think 2 weeks will be long enough, by the time I begin I will only have been gluten free for about 2 months. I'm considering looking for another GI or a celiac specialist like you mentioned, that could really help! Thank you for your response and advise, hopefully I won't feel too horrible during the trial (although it is hard to imagine going back to gluten after feeling good for the first time in months without it), but I hope it will work out! Thanks again

      No, I haven't tried Gliadin X, although @Scott Adams might be able to discuss his experiences.   I think it's a bad idea to take GliadinX during your gluten challenge.  You won't mount a strong enough autoimmune response.
